I was sitting on the carpet in the family room watching tv with my parents in their house. There was a real neighbor my parents don't get along with who was invading our privacy by sitting on a picnic blanket on our backyard lawn staring at us through the glass door of the living room. Since this neighbor has staring problem in real life, we usually just ignore her or don't make eye contact. But I started back as to say go away while my parents watched tv. I think she looked down. She had food treats on her blanket. I think she said she wanted to give us food (like she was giving other neighbors food). This dream was some time ago so it's hard to remember all the details.

Hope,
Here is my amplification of the images and actions so you can examine them. My sense from these are you have developed attitudes from childhood that have created personal traits in your adult life. These unconscious energies prevent you from having confidence in yourself in certain environments, in particular when in interactions with people or a crowd of people. The dream also seems to be pointing to a lack of proper emotional nourishment from family/parents. 'They were watching tv' instead of giving needed attention to your emotional needs. Also possible substituting of the lacking nourishment with 'feel good' actions on your part.

As for the other meaning/applications {all dreams have at least two}, there were probably recent experiences related to these traits. The staring of the neighbors may point to a recent situation that was 'staring' you in the eye, a situation you may have felt a lack of confidence in being in. Self confidence may be the central theme of the dream, if not overall then in certain situations/environments.

Read the following and what i have provided and see where it may fit. I do believe the dream is strongly pointing to personal traits/attitudes which probably have to do with your childhood upbringing.
